Don't know much about it myself to be honest.  :embarassed:

Just thought I'd recommend something that I used this weekend though, it's a new polish from Autoglym and it's supposed to stop smears and the haze etc, anyway I did mine yesterday and the finish is quality, the paint work feels like glass, it was easy to apply and take off as most Autoglym stuff are. It's called Ultra Deep Shine its a dark square on the bottle and it can be purchased from halfrauds for £11.99. It's mainly for dark colours but I poslished my wheels with it and they come up well.  :smiley: Get some you will not be disappointed.  :grin:
......now officially dubless.

I know someone that uses Z on there Cupra ours had stone chips all over the front in just a few months his is 4 years old and doesn't have 1, he uses the stuff that is meant to relect stones thus no chips and on his cupra it really has worked, so that stuff is worth the money, but you can go over the top with all teh stuff that is out there these days!

A good quality wash, Zymol or Autoglym, then
T-cut,
Auto glym super resin polish and
auto glym extra gloss protection.

Works a treat, did this on the missus's old Cavalier a while back when we were selling it, and a guy bought it just from looking at it (he didn't even drive it!  :shocked::wink:  Full Asking Price !!  :smiley:

... it's turned into a fashion show for poofters.
